A CLASS ACT
RUNNING LATE - SOMEONE ELSE SITTING IN MY 12TH ROW SEAT - "MONEY CAN'T BUY IT" - NO TELLING HOW MUCH MONEY I WOULD OF PAID TO SEE THIS SHOW - I GOT OFF CHEAP -
"LEGEND IN MY LIVING ROOM"
THIS WOULD BE MY THIRD TIME SEEING ANNIE IN CONCERT - THE LAST ONE WAS OVER 14 YEARS AGO - IN THAT TIME I REDUCED HER TO VIDEOS AND LOW AND BEHOLD - SHE BECAME A "LEGEND IN MY LIVING ROOM" - NOW SHE'S A LEGEND IN DETROIT -
"LITTLE BIRD"
HER VOICE IS LIKE A BIRD SINGING - FOR THE SAKE OF ANGER - LOVE AND PEACE - WATCHING HER ON STAGE WAS LIKE WATCHING A LITTLE BIRD GLIDE - THANK YOU -
"1000 BEAUTIFUL THINGS"
YES - THE ONLY THING WRONG WITH THIS SHOW WAS THAT SHE DIDN'T SING 1000 SONGS -
"NO MORE I LOVE YOU"
IF I ATTEMPT TO DOWNLOAD - THE NEW CD AND HERE THIS NUMBER ONE MORE TIME - I MIGHT HAVE TO SAY IT MAY BECOME MY FAVORITE SONG - YES I WILL WAIT AND PAY THE MONEY FOR THE CD - NO TELLING HOW MUCH -
I WAS PRIVILEGED ENOUGH TO HAVE 12TH ROW SEATS - HOWEVER AS WE APPROACHED - OUR SEATS - TO MY SURPRISE THEY WHERE OCCUPIED AND THE OCCUPANTS WOULD NOT MOVE - I REALLY DIDN'T EXPECT THEY WOULD - SO AS MY FRIEND AND THE TICKET LADY - LOOKED FOR OTHER SEATS - I TOOK IT UPON MYSELF TO
"WALKING ON BROKEN GLASS"
I TOOK IT UPON MYSELF TO WALK UP TO THE FRONT ROW AND REALIZED THAT I COULD WALK PAST THE FRONT ROW AND RIGHT UP TO THE STAGE - AND SO I DID - AS I STOOD THERE I BLEW MRS. LENNOX A KISS - SHE LOOKED AT ME AS SHE BOWED HER HEAD TO SEE OUT OF THE TIP OF HER SUNGLASSES - OF COURSE THE EXPRESSION OF HER SEEMED TO ME "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS GUY DOING" - WELL I WOULD OF STOOD ON BROKEN GLASS ALL NIGHT - FOR THE LOCATION I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO ENJOY A CLASS ACT.
WELL AT THIS POINT I DECIDED THAT I SHOULD SEARCH FOR MY FRIEND - LOOKING BEHIND ME TO THE RIGHT MY FRIEND WAVED TO MY FROM THE 4TH ROW - OH GREAT - TWO SEATS IN -
"PAVEMENT CRACKS" AND "COLD"
AT WHICH POINT THE SHOW CAME TO A PAUSE
"HERE COMES THE RAIN AGAIN" - "SISTERS" - "WHO'S THAT GIRL"
"YOU HAVE PLACED A CHILL IN MY HEART"
LETTING THE FACT THAT THE OCCUPANTS WOULDN'T MOVE FROM MY 12TH ROW SEAT BOTHER ME AND THAT I HAD TO STAND FRONT AND CENTER FOR AT LEAST 3 SONGS - UNTIL OUR 4TH ROW SEATS CAME ALONG - I REALIZED THAT ANNIE HAS PLACED A CHILL IN MY HEART -
"WONDERFUL"
NEED I SAY MORE
"BITTER PILL"
ATTITUDE
"DON'T LET IT BRING YOU DOWN"
WHAT HAVING FOURTH ROW
"WOULD I LIE TO YOU"
"SWEET DREAMS'
TEARS
"I NEED A MAN"
NO ANNIE YOU NEED TO DO ANOTHER TOUR SOON
MEN SEEM TO KEEP YOU FROM TOURING
LEAVING MY FOURTH ROW SEAT I APPROACHED THE STAGE ONCE AGAIN -
"WHY"
WHY DON'T YOU COME TO CLEVELAND - I HAD TO SETTLE FOR DETROIT NOT MUCH DIFFERENT FROM BAGHDAD!
BUT NONE THE LESS - I GOT TO EXPERIENCE - SOMETHING I WAITED FOR A LONG TIME AND IT WAS EVERYTHING AND MORE -
THANK YOU - THANK YOU - THANK YOU - (PATRICK J. SIMARI)
